- Reason
- Extremely simple, but well-developed and -used diagram of the eight major taxonomic ranks in the currently accepted (for the most part) biological classification system. It is the basis of Template:Biological classification, which allows it to be clickable (I don't do much coding, so my description is quite that of a layman). Check it out here and see what I mean. Bonus: it's svg.
- Articles this image appears in
- Basis of Template:Biological classification, which is used in the respective articles of each of the taxonomic ranks, in addition to Life, Paleontology, Taxon, etc. See image page for complete list.

Added to Species in March 2007; added to Life in May 2007; I could go on, but I think that qualifies. ~ ωαdεstεr16♣TC♣ 03:30, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

- Weak Support Kind of seems upside down. Noodle snacks (talk) 00:22, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- (I know this is a bit late but) the flipped version can be found at File:Biological classification L Pengo vflip.svg. I've added made it more discoverable now too. —Pengo 23:37, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- Weak support per Noodle snacks. I like that it is an SVG. J Milburn (talk) 19:15, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- Support - I don't see it as upside down, as this represents a branch of the life tree -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:02, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- Hierarchies are usually shown from top to bottom though, and this is reflected in the taxobox for pretty much everything. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:28, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
